See Screnshot. Got a doc, not too bad. Need to run Des layout Panel to reset boxes. Main reason for bothering is she's created Trims (In Indy), which butt at the Trim Box corner.   :homer: Easy for 1 page...delete trims, fix Boxes in DLP, then replace Trims in EAL.
Can someone steer me to a GC or EAL to run a delete trims for all 72pp?

Cheers...

What I need is the opposite of this...  i.e. Set Marks to boxes.   :laugh:

set your trim box to the size of the document you want, based off center of existing media box or trim box. Then run remove marks.

You ought to be able to finger it out by editing one of these. (Import these)

sorry, these are .edls

Right click and edit one of them. The "TEMP SIZE " one is the one I use for one-off shit. Just go through the settings, they're pretty logical. You can also add actions to them, some of those have some extend bleed, remove marks, add marks actions added to them. Names sort of show what they do.

On the case mate. Had already done it semi-automated, sorta... Select Similar> delete, page down>Select Similar>delete....

But good for next time.   :cool:

You can do this faster by doing "change specific color" - with one mark selected, grab stroke, change destination color to tint of 0% and apply to the entire document. This assumes she did it in registration and nothing else is.

Very nice. It strangely left the top vertical Marks in place, no doubt a quirk of the doc.
 But nice....   :cheesy:

If you did a global change and those are still there, they must not have been registration like the rest...or they would be gone too.

Good point. Rogue 100K maybe. I'll look later, out of interest.

One thing to add, after setting your new page boxes using the Pitstop Inspector, you can save that as a design layout option and after combing the files, IF it's not one complete document, you can run that same option on the rest of the pages.

I don't use inspector to do anything with page boxes, I find that all I need can be done in the Design Layouts panel with my canned settings uploaded previously or modifying a throwaway one and leveraging a point of reference from existing boxes or a static size. I'll have to take a look at doing it in inspector though.
